Nautel VS1 EIA

1KW FM Transmitter w/ EIA Connector

BSW PART: VS1-EIA

Nautel’s VS Series FM transmitters are unlike any other. Industry first innovations such as IP audio, Livewire and Shoutcast support, audio backup, advanced control and optional Orban Inside. Easy upgrade path to digital broadcasting. Outputs of 300 W, 1 kW, and 2.5 kW. Outstanding value with big transmitter features in a compact box.

Many transmitters in the 300 W to 2.5 kW class use an inexpensive analog exciter that is sometimes an external unit. In the VS Series, not only did Nautel engineers integrate the exciter, they implemented a true direct-to-channel digital exciter to achieve class leading performance. That means crystal clear audio and outstanding value. A great achievement considering that digital exciters alone usually sell for over US $10,000. The VS300 and VS1 transmitters with their built-in RDS generator, gps input, powerful presets and -90dB SNR make for powerful and extremely cost-effective exciters.

Never before has such sophisticated control been made available in this class of transmitter. Nautel brings its renowned Advanced User Interface (AUI) found in its high end transmitters to the VS Series. Instrumentation is included that would be valued separately at more than the cost of the transmitter. In addition a front panel LCD provides control of key functions.

Access the AUI via the internet or a direct CAT-5 cable connection. Years of interface development effort gives you immediate access to almost any parameter imaginable, whether at the transmitter site or from the comfort of your living room. Imagine knowing in advance what parts and tools you’ll need at the transmitter site. Having that much control remotely can help you avoid trips, save time and save money.

The VS Series are the first transmitters ever to implement Axia’s Livewire Studio to Transmitter Audio over IP Workflow. The result is a seamless digital IP audio path from a host of Livewire compatible devices directly into a Nautel transmitter ensuring outstanding audio purity via a CAT 5 cable. If you stream your station on SHOUTcast you can even use it as an input should your STL fail.

When you add this much intelligence and IP I/O to a transmitter you’ll be amazed by what you can do. Nautel added a USB port so that you can connect megabytes of local storage. Use the storage to store content or even load up the songs and content using the VS internet connection. Once you have audio loaded it can become part of the automated back up audio capability should all other connections fail.

Every rugged and reliable VS Series transmitter is the result of years of Nautel design expertise and is crafted completely within Nautel’s North American manufacturing facilities. Compact, value-optimized packaging, easy-to-access washable air filters, published parts lists and screw driver replaceable power amplifiers make living with your VS transmitter easy for years to come.
